Helps you interpret a full range of findings with nearly 4,000 high-quality conventional radiography, ultrasound, CT, 3D CT, dual-energy CT, MRI, PET, PET/CT, PET/MRI, and other imaging techniques--1/3 new to this edition. Contains new coverage of sports injuries and cartilage imaging; clinical features and pathologic correlations of many conditions; and up-to-date references. 

Digital Radiography in Practice

This book is intended to provide medical radiography programs with an economical textbook that focuses on the practical aspects of digital radiography. In this new second edition by esteemed author Quinn B. Carroll and with content developed in close collaboration with the medical physics community and several reviewers, this is the most accurate information on digital imaging available.

Student Workbook for Digital Radiography in Practice

The Workbook is organized throughout in a concise "fill-in-the-blank" format, focusing on key words to reinforce students' retention of the material. The wording and sequencing of questions closely mirrors the PowerPoint Slide series for each course. This Workbook strikes a perfect balance between allowing the student to concentrate on the lecture by doing minimal writing while still challenging the student to participate in classroom learning. An effective "note-taking" tool, it also doubles as a reinforcement tool for homework and individual study.

Breast Imaging

Focusing on high-yield information, Breast Imaging: The Core Requisites, 4th Edition emphasizes the basics to help you establish a foundational understanding of breast imaging during rotations, refresh your knowledge of key concepts, and learn strategies to provide "value-added" reports to referring clinicians.

Interpreting Musculoskeletal Images

This visual manual is an accessible guide to musculoskeletal image interpretation and reporting, including common trauma pathologies, arthropathies, mechanisms of injury and classification systems. Beautifully illustrated with schematic line diagrams, supplemented with radiographs and scans, the content has been developed to enhance learning and understanding of both radiology and anatomy, and the relationship between them.
